<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">One other question. I have searched for
the TCMP frame in the ID3v2.4 definition but I couldn’t find it. I’m interested
to know how this frames should be constructed.</span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">iTunes is doing it like this:</span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"> </span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">TCMP xx xx xx xx yy yy 00 31 00 if the
file is part of a compilation. (xx xx xx xx = size and yy yy are the flags).</span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">Would this be the correct way to do it?</span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You can use TCMP in
ID3v2.3. It's not official, but a lot of players support it.<br>
<br>
If you mean how to identify the artist of the compilation, for example, a DJ
compilation, I've seen TXXX VA Artist used, not by iTunes, but that's the
closest thing I've seen. In case the scenario isn't clear here's an example <a href="http://bit.ly/cpx7lL" target="_blank">http://bit.ly/cpx7lL</a> (<a href="http://amazon.com" target="_blank">amazon.com</a>) where Reid Speed would be the VA
Artist and Dylan, K, Filthy Dirty Rich v. Angelai, etc would go in TPE1.</span></font></p>

Hello,<br>
<br>
Let’s say we have a song with title A from artist B that is recorded an album
called C. The album C is a compilation album. So A, B and C would use the
following frames:<br>
<br>
TIT2 = A<br>
<br>
TALB = C<br>
<br>
TPE1 = B<br>
<br>
In what frame would I identify the “compilation” or various artists? I have
looked into the ID3v2.3 standard but I couldn’t find a specific frame for such
information. What ID3v2.3 frame should I use for that kind of information?<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
<br>
Pascal</span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">In ID3v24 you would use
TCMP, no such frame exists for ID3v23 but I would use TCMP for this as well,
this is what iTunes does<br>
